it didn't work :(. I downloaded the firmware (the k one) changed the name and replaced the old one. I reboot and without change the DPM value it freezes after a while. Now I'm back using the echo-command when I login and it's the only way to make the GPU work. Do I maybe have to do more after replacing the file? Run some command?
I think only MSI 390X and XFX 390 users confirmed that hawaii_k_smc.bin works for them. I also own R9 390 from MSI and it does not work for me either. Tried in both Arch and Fedora, with updated initrd.
@Alex, is the firmware in radeon_ucode/k/ folder the same that was just updated in the linux-firmware git tree? http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/ commit/?id=6e767c2b85c62fb7325fdc00f51b90f6747c13ab
I see. I also own a MSI r9 390, that would explain the fact that it's not working. But I didn't update initrd (how do I do it and hod do I check if I need to do it, sorry about my ignorance :S ), but apparently it won't work anyway.
